Because of the GDPR, Google offers a download of all collected data about you. When you have your location history enabled, this should be part of it. If that’s in a useful data format to parse, one could program this with the actual data of one’s movement
It works great! When I was on paternity leave and went out for walks with the baby in the stroller every day, it was a bit boring to just walk the same route each time. I downloaded the Fog of world app and set my self the goal of walking every meter of every street in my part of town before the end of my leave. That made it much more fun, buuuuut I haven’t used it after that…
You wouldn't be stuck with the fog, you would be able to toggle it on and off. The purpose is to make it obvious which areas you've already seen, so that you can know which areas of the world you still have yet to explore!
Its a nice idea , but I will hate the way these tech giants choose to implement it. 99% of implementation would need location to be tracked 24x7 and stored in their server . If someone would have a local or private way to do this , I’m exited.
I would normally agree with you, but I ran across the privacy policy while looking at the app. Plus it looks like you get to choose which cloud service to sync with.
Correct. Most of it took a year and a half before I got a job that keeps me home every night. Hit all 48 contiguous states except Vermont (I tried to avoid the northeast whenever possible)
More traffic, and way less truck parking. If you’re not shut down by 4pm forget about it.
Out west I got longer loads, better views, and always somewhere to park outside of the cities. Midwest is okay but a bit boring, southeast isn’t much better than northeast.
It thought about that, actually. If I was in a gladiator pit, I would absolutely want my own vote to count, and it does.
However, after thinking about the dynamics of social media updooting, the first vote, in my opinion, is actually the starting point for the scale, not 0/0. It’s not that OPs vote doesn’t count, it’s just that the scale is shifted by one and starts at 1/0 by default. OP can then choose to keep the upvote, remove the upvote or downvote. (Basically, it’s not OPs choice to get the 1/0 vote. Changing the default vote, or keeping it, is where OP has a choice.)
There is an argument to be had that all posts start at 0/0, regardless of defaults. My own opinion is that they actually all start at 1/0. Supporters of either could argue they are correct.
I am fully aware that I am making a really stupid argument here, but it’s supposed to be in fun.

Let’s agree on that.
No, seriously: 1 (1/0) feels like no one cared, but 1 (10/9) and 0 (10/10) both feel equaly controversial. That’s why I like that lemmy shows both ups und downs and not only the result.
If technology exists they will 100% implement that ads will keep repeating unless there are people in the room. The active listening devices already record every data they can and it’s only a matter of time before they can accurately conclude if the room is empty or occupied.
